My anxious over-analytical mind may be digging a pit to trap me in! My rapid mood cycles are too random and short lived to really meet a dx requirement. is just like my brain is mad at me, it wants to distract me from the real world, from responsibility, with all this MI worrying ********! I can never be sure I have been sure a hundred times but I have doubted just as many. I can't stop wasting my time!

Hey Thoughtbubble,

I too have questioned my diagnosis. I worry that its all a dream, that I will wake up and I will magically be "cured" it's silly as I know the diagnosis is right as well I am a million times better now I am on meds lol!

My Support Worker has went over and over this with me as I question my diagnosis a lot. My CPN is going to talk it all over with me when I next see him as I have still got doubts and its been a good couple of months of this.

I hope you find reason on your journey

I rapid cycle and I use to over think every mood I was in thousands of times a day .. Exhausting ! I have learned with the help of my T to distract myself and realize really realize that being worried about every mood is a waste of time. I no longer care if I "Bipolar" or not . If the doctor needs a diagnosis then so be it.

I keep a mood chart Yes its hard when my mood may change numerous times a day . I kind of average it out.

I hope you can find ways to side track the constant monitoring of moods that flip all over the place.. I so understand how you are feeling .
